Painters Serving Glenview, IL Since 1969
Glenview has changed a lot, with The Glen turning the old naval air station into a whole new part of town. We have painted the older neighborhoods and the newer ones, and handled plenty of renovations and additions where the fresh paint has to match the old. Blending those seamlessly is a skill, and it is one we have had decades to sharpen.
Additions and remodels are where a lot of paint jobs fall apart, because matching color and sheen across old and new surfaces is harder than it looks. We take the time to get it right so you cannot tell where the old house ends and the new part begins. That is the whole point of a good repaint.
What We Paint in Glenview
- Interior painting: walls, trim, ceilings, and cabinetry, with the prep that makes the finish last.
- Exterior painting: siding, soffits, fascia, brick, and stucco that can take the North Shore weather.
- Deck and fence staining: stripped, cleaned, and sealed so it holds up season after season.
- Front door and garage door refinishing: brought back to life, grain and all.
- Commercial painting: offices, storefronts, schools, park district buildings, and multi-unit properties.
- Color guidance: honest advice so you still love the color years after we pack up.
Interior Painting in Glenview
Interior work in Glenview runs from full repaints of the 1950s and 60s ranches and split-levels around Swainwood and Glenview Countryside to color changes in newer homes in The Glen. The common thread is prep: filling nail pops and settling cracks, caulking trim that has pulled away, and priming patches so they do not flash through the finish. We move and cover furniture, keep one room workable at a time if you are living in the house, and use low-VOC Sherwin-Williams products so the room is usable the same evening. Kitchen cabinets, built-ins, and trim get a sprayed enamel finish rather than a brushed one when the job calls for it.
Exterior Painting in Glenview
Glenview exteriors take a beating from lake-effect freeze-thaw, and the mix of housing stock means no two jobs prep the same way. Cedar siding on the older homes needs loose paint scraped, bare wood spot-primed, and every joint recaulked before the finish goes on. Brick and stucco need breathable masonry coatings, not sealers. Aluminum and fiber-cement siding on newer homes need a bonding primer and the right sheen so chalking does not show. We power-wash low and slow, let the house dry, and paint in dry weather between late April and October. Pete checks the soffits, fascia, and window sills on every walk-through because that is where water gets in first.
